Posted May 5, 201312 yr comment_5543963 Tony Charles vs. Les Thornton (2/27/82) This is a battle of the NWA World Jr. champ against the US Jr. Heavyweight champ. Damn there is some good wrestling action here then Les breaks out some fucking vicious European uppercuts to bring the aggression. Charles fights back with forearms of his own and some wicked crossfaces. Larry Brock gets bumped as Charles has Thornton in an O'Connor Roll but Tony still comes out on top as he pins Les after countering a backdrop suplex by falling on Les. Really good match and a nomination.
February 12, 201411 yr comment_5587683 I enjoyed this match and feels it deserves a low-end nomination. Both guys looked smooth. Thornton's cravat as his base was awesome. Then he would work knee drops, European upper cuts and other stuff to focus on Charles's neck. This added a little ruggedness to the match. I watched it on you tube.
